A former California judge was sentenced this week for possession of child
pornography, five years after a vigilante hacker infiltrated his computer
with a Trojan horse computer program designed to weed out pedophiles.

Former Orange County Superior Court Judge Ronald C. Kline, 65, of Irvine,
Calif., was sentenced Feb. 20, to 27 months in federal prison for
possessing thousands of images of under-age boys engaged in sexually
explicit conduct. He pleaded guilty in December 2005 to four counts of
possession of child pornography, admitting that the images of child
pornography were on his home computer, two floppy disks and one portable
disk drive, according to a written release from the U.S. Attorney's Office
in the Central District of California.

The sentencing wrapped up nearly six year of legal wrangling over the
admissibility of evidence obtained from Kline's computer.
